add x86 support for jump label. I'm keeping this patch separate so its clear to arch maintainers what was required for x86 support this new feature. Hopefully, it wouldn't be too painful for other archs.

base patch to implement 'jump labeling'. Based on a new 'asm goto' inline assembly gcc mechanism, we can now branch to labels from an 'asm goto' statment. This allows us to create a 'no-op' fastpath, which can subsequently be patched with a jump to the slowpath code. This is useful for code which might be rarely used, but which we'd like to be able to call, if needed. Tracepoints are the current usecase that these are being implemented for. Acked-by: David S.

Aside from allowing software events into a !software group, allow adding !software events to pure software groups. Once we've moved the software group and attached the first !software event, the group will no longer be a pure software group and hence no longer be eligible for movement, at which point the straight ctx comparison is correct again.

This patch adds new generic events for dynamic power management tracing: - clock events class: used for clock enable/disable and for clock rate change, - power_domain events class: used for power domains transitions. The OMAP architecture will be using the new events for PM debugging, however the new events are made generic enough to be used by all platforms.

The kernel perf event creation path shouldn't use find_task_by_vpid() because a vpid exists in a specific namespace. find_task_by_vpid() uses current's pid namespace which isn't always the correct namespace to use for the vpid in all the places perf_event_create_kernel_counter() (and thus find_get_context()) is called. The goal is to clean up pid namespace handling and prevent bugs like: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17281 Instead of using pids switch find_get_context() to use task struct pointers directly. The syscall is responsible for resolving the pid to a task struct. This moves the pid namespace resolution into the syscall much like every other syscall that takes pid parameters.

Hardware breakpoints can't be registered within pid namespaces because tsk->pid is passed rather than the pid in the current namespace. (See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17281 ) This is a quick fix demonstrating the problem but is not the best method of solving the problem since passing pids internally is not the best way to avoid pid namespace bugs. Subsequent patches will show a better solution. Much thanks to Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> for doing the bulk of the work finding this bug.

In case you boot with the watchdog disabled, i.e., nowatchdog, then, if you try to disable it via /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog, you get a kernel crash. The reason is that you are trying to cancel a hrtimer which has never been initialized. This patch fixes this by skipping execution of watchdog_disable_all_cpus() when the watchdog is marked disabled from boot.

When the function graph tracer funcgraph-irq option is zero, disable tracing in IRQs. This makes the option have two effects. 1) When reading the trace file, do not display the functions that happen in interrupt context (when detected) 2) [*new*] When recording a trace, skip those that are detected to be in interrupt by the 'in_irq()' function Note, in_irq() is updated at irq_enter() and irq_exit(). There are still functions that are recorded by the function graph tracer that is in interrupt context but outside the irq_enter/exit() routines. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

It's handy to be able to disable the irq related output and not to have to jump over each irq related code, when you have no interrest in it. The option is by default enabled, so there's no change to current behaviour. It affects only the final output, so all the irq related data stay in the ring buffer.

If we do: # cd /sys/kernel/debug # echo 'do_IRQ:traceon schedule:traceon sys_write:traceon' > \ set_ftrace_filter # cat set_ftrace_filter We get the following output: #### all functions enabled #### sys_write:traceon:unlimited schedule:traceon:unlimited do_IRQ:traceon:unlimited This outputs two lists. One is the fact that all functions are currently enabled for function tracing, the other has three probed functions, which happen to have 'traceon' as their commands. Currently, when reading the first list (functions enabled) the seq_file code will receive a "NULL" from the t_next() function causing it to exit early. This makes "read()" from userspace stop reading the code at this boarder. Although read is allowed to do this, some (broken) applications might consider this an end of file and stop early. This patch adds the start of the second list to t_next() when it finishes the first list. It is a simple change and gives the set_ftrace_filter file nicer reading ability.

This patch keeps track of the index within the elements of set_ftrace_filter and if the position goes backwards, it nicely resets and starts from the beginning again. This allows for lseek and pread to work properly now. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Steven Rostedt authored
The set_ftrace_filter uses seq_file and reads from two lists. The pointer returned by t_next() can either be of type struct dyn_ftrace or struct ftrace_func_probe. If there is a bug (there was one) the wrong pointer may be used and the reference can cause an oops. This patch makes t_next() and friends only return the iterator structure which now has a pointer of type struct dyn_ftrace and struct ftrace_func_probe. The t_show() can now test if the pointer is NULL or not and if the pointer exists, it is guaranteed to be of the correct type. Now if there's a bug, only wrong data will be shown but not an oops.

After the filtered functions are read, the probed functions are read from the hash in set_ftrace_filter. When the hashed probed functions are read, the *pos passed in is reset. Instead of modifying the pos given to the read function, just record the pos where the filtered functions ended and subtract from that. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
